Celebrate May Day in Costa Adeje with thrilling whale and dolphin watching tours, vibrant local markets, and a lively nightlife. With perfect spring weather, it’s the ideal time to explore the natural beauty and cultural richness of the Canary Islands.

Embrace the Spirit of Spring in Costa Adeje

As the sun peeks through the clouds, Costa Adeje comes alive with the vibrant energy of May Day celebrations. The weather is just right for a weekend of exploration and adventure, with temperatures hovering comfortably in the mid-60s. The high UV index is a gentle reminder to slather on some sunscreen before heading out to embrace the spirit of spring in this stunning part of the Canary Islands.

Start your day with a leisurely stroll along the sun-drenched beaches, where the gentle breeze carries the scent of the ocean. The morning is perfect for a Tenerife Coast Adventure as you set sail from Puerto Colon. This three-hour tour offers a chance to witness the playful dance of whales and dolphins against the backdrop of the majestic Tenerife mountains. With complimentary beverages and a delicious lunch on board, it’s a delightful way to soak in the natural beauty of the region. As one recent review noted, “The highlight of our trip! Fantastic! We shared the experience with about 20 others on the boat who were all very nice. Endless beverages for the entire ride. We saw Pilot whales and the captains did an amazing job of getting us close enough to really see them.” (Reviewed on 2025-03-15)

Afternoon Adventures and Island Vibes

As the afternoon sun casts a warm glow over Costa Adeje, it’s time to dive into more adventures. The Los Gigantes and Masca Bay Tour offers a unique opportunity to explore the awe-inspiring Los Gigantes cliffs and Masca Bay. This eco-friendly catamaran tour is perfect for those who appreciate sustainable travel. With a knowledgeable crew providing live commentary, you’ll gain insights into the marine life that calls this area home. A recent review captures the essence of this experience: “Great trip with nice crew. We had a wonderful 3 hours aboard the catamaran. We were a small group of maybe 20-25 people and it was very relaxed and chill. We started on time 10:30 a.m., when boarding the boat still photos were taken of the guests, which could then be bought later, but they were not forced on you.” (Reviewed on 2025-04-22)

As the sun begins to set, the vibrant colors of the sky create a breathtaking backdrop, making it an ideal time to capture some stunning photos.
